As a secondary math teacher, I particularly found the "Methods for Student Practice" session helpful, and would love to perhaps see some similar choice sessions in the coming weeks. ]]> 2016-06-30 19:19:10 UTC https://padlet.com/shaleka_covington/qxc66i1s79d4/wish/115767906 shaleka_covington https://padlet.com/shaleka_covington/qxc66i1s79d4/wish/115768051 Some of the sessions we've had could've been done online or in half the time. I think there needs to be a specific purpose for each session and we need to be working to reach whatever goal is at the end. ]]> 2016-06-30 19:22:08 UTC https://padlet.com/shaleka_covington/qxc66i1s79d4/wish/115768051 shaleka_covington https://padlet.com/shaleka_covington/qxc66i1s79d4/wish/115768317 Through our D&I sessions, I've gained an understanding of the various obstacles that can come in between teachers and students, specifically because of differences in teacher and student backgrounds. I also have learned about how teachers can use these differences/facets of their identity for positive connection.
